Newark Metropolitan Hotel thankful for fire response

On behalf of the Jerry McClain Co. and the Newark Metropolitan Hotel, we would like to recognize the local fire departments for the outstanding service they provided at the hotel the night of Feb. 4.

During the incident, they handled themselves in a professional manner. It was evident that these men and women were committed to safely and efficiently protecting the lives and property of the residents of Newark.

Assistant Chief David Decker showed terrific leadership, while Tim Smith, Gregg Coffman, and Aaron Webb portrayed tremendous cooperation with hotel management and staff, in order to make certain emergency protocol and prevention plans remain the top priority. We would also like to acknowledge the fact that these men were dedicated to limit any interruptions to the business operations of the hotel. We are thankful that their focus was to ensure safety and prevent business and economic hardship.

It is comforting to know that the city of Newark is equipped with well-trained professional personnel who, by their actions, give the residents of this city the confidence they need in times of trouble.

We are truly grateful for the city of Newark's fire department and other local emergency personnel.
